I AM SCREECHING I loved this so much!!

I went into this knowing VERY little about the plot - the cover told me that it was about an astronaut and I said SIGN ME UP! But thennnnnn I found out that it's fake dating and let me tell you... it was spectacular. immaculate. swoon-worthy.

- I love Amerie and I love Vincent. Off to a good start.
- The classic meet cute turns into the most ironic fake dating setup ever and I was here for it
- The sexual tension? out of this world (get it? because he's an astronaut)
- The banter? legendary
- The cozy family vibes and utterly adorable way they act around each other?? I'm still giggling and crying over how cute this was
- Spending a whole week with Vince's family while pretending to be in love while also pretending to NOT be in love because feelings are scary? Iconic.
- The dramatic third act breakup was... understandable given all the very messy things they were dealing with.
- The subsequent make up was dramatic as all get out and if I'm honest... a little too dramatic and unrealistic? I mean she straight up (view spoiler)- kinda iconic, kinda idiotic
